THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Bennington’s wastewater treatment facility must add phosphorus removal by December 2028 under a new state discharge permit. Aldrich + Elliott has completed a preliminary engineering report and is now designing a new chemical addition and tertiary sand filter system built into an existing structure. The town is applying for Step I and Step II State Revolving Fund loans totaling $254,400, with a projected overall project cost of about $5,000,000 and construction planned for March 2027–March 2028. This is still in design and funding setup, so contractors and equipment vendors can begin positioning for the upcoming Step III construction phase and related controls, gates, pumps, and filtration equipment.
SRF Step I loan $29,700 and Step II loan $224,700 include 50% principal forgiveness on engineering services; Step III construction financing anticipated via SRF at 2% APR over 20 years.
